Permit No.: PSD-LA-751 (DRI PSD)
Issued by the Louisiana Department of
Environmental Quality
PETITION REQUESTING THE ADMINISTRATOR TO OBJECT TO TITLE V OPERATING PERMITS NOS. 2560-00281-V1 AND 3086-V0 ISSUED TO CONSOLIDATED ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT, INC. / NUCORSTEEL LOUISIANA
Pursuant to section 505(b) of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. § 7661d(b)(2) and 40 C.F.R. § petition the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to object to the modified Title V Air Operating Permit (No. 2560-00281-V1) for the pig iron plant and the initial Title V Air Operating Permit (No. 3086-V0) for the Direct Reduced Iplant issued on January27, 2011 by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality
Environmental Management Inc., Nucor iron manufacturing facility in Convent, Louisiana. Sierra Club and LEAN base this petition on comments that they, Zen-Noh Grain, and EPA Region 6 filed with LDEQ during the public comment period on the permits at issue. Sierra Club and LEAN also adopt and incorporate by reference Zen- EPA to object to the modified Title V permit for the pig iron plant and the initial Title V permit for the DRI plant.SUMMARY
EPA should object to modified pig iron Title V permit and initial DRI Title V permits because they violate the Clean Air Act and the Louisiana state implementation plan for the following reasons:(1) LDEQ failed to aggregate the DRI and Pig Iron facilities and permit them under one PSD permit as one major source.
(2) LDEQ failed to apply MACT standards for the topgas boilers. (3) LDEQ failed to include limits for PM2.5 emissions in the Title V permit for the pig iron plant and also failed to provide PM2.5 emission limits in the PSD permit for the DRI plant. (4) the Louisiana SIP because the limit for natural gas consumption is not BACT for greenhouse gas emissions. For these reasons, the Administrator should object to the permits within 60 days upon receipt of this petition, as required by § 505 of the Act, because they violate the applicable requirements of the Act and the Louisiana implementation plan. 42 U.S.C. § 7661d(b)(2). The Administrator should revoke the permits upon her objection. Id. § 7661d(b)(3). 2STATUTORY AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK

A Part 70 permit cannot impose new substantive air quality controlFed. Reg 32250, 32280.
Section 5

A petition must sed with reasonable specificity during the public comment period . . . (unless the petitioner demonstrates in the petition to the 3 Administrator that it was impracticable to raise such objections within such period or unless the grounds for such objection ashall issue an requirements of the Act or SIP. Id. (emphasis added); see also 40 C.F.R. § 70.8(c)(1). The duty to object is not discretionary, New York Public Interest Research Group, Inc. v. Whitman, 321 F.3d 316, 332-33 (2nd Cir. 2003), and applies whether the petitioner demonstrates violations of either substantive or procedural requirements. Sierra Club v. Johnson, 436 F.3d 1269, 1280 (11th Cir. 2006). Where a person bases the petition on violations of PSD or the SIP, EPA will generally follow the required procedures in the SIP; (2) make PSD determinations on reasonable grounds the Matter of Louisville Gas and Electric Company, Trimble County, Kentucky, Part 70/PSD Air Quality Permit # V-02-043 Revisions 2 and 3, Order Responding to Issues Raised in April 28,2008 and March 2, 2006 Petitions, and Denying in Part and Granting in Part Requests for

SPECIFIC OBJECTIONS
I. EPA MUST OBJECT TO THE TITLE V PERMITS BECAUSE LDEQ FAILED TO AGGREGATE PSD PERMITTING FOR EMISSIONS FROM THE ENTIRE FACILITY. EPA must object to the Title V permits because LDEQ failed to aggregate the pig ironrequirements. See, e.g., 42 U.S.C. §§ 7470-7477; 40 C.F.R. §§ 51.165, 52.21; La. Admin. Code
tit. 33, pt. III, § 509. By issuing separate PSD permits for the pig iron process and DRI process,
LDEQ allowed Nucor to circumvent the air quality impact analysis prerequisites. For example, LDEQ did not require Nucor to perform the air quality impact modeling --for NAAQS review and preconstruction monitoring applicability --for all emission sources in the aggregate facility. DQG
